We’ve Come A Long Way . . .

It had been my dream for over ten years to own a workshop. After years of building out rented spaces and being subject to sometimes insane landlords, always worrying about having to move on quickly, I finally did it. It was scary plunking down more cash than I’ve ever handed to anyone in my life. With a baby on the way I did plenty of wondering whether it wasn’t a stupid idea.

Then I remembered that I’ve only ever regretted the things I hadn’t done. It’s more than just a platitude. Paid my money and signed on the dotted line (three thousand times it seems).

Casey, Dan, Vinny, Chris, Erik and I transformed it completely over the last year and a half. I’m proud of what we built and honored to have such friends as these. Thank you.

I look forward to our future accomplishments and good times.

Casey working the chainsaw to rid us of some big ass weed trees.

Many trips to the dump were required.

Moving day: our shuttle.



Moving day.

Casey and I spent ALL day painting. Much brighter!

Young Dan and Casey built work bays.

I wired the entire place. There wasn't a single outlet before.

Built in shelves and a parts stash loft.

Transformed!!!!!

Full of bikes and people like it should be.

  5. I’ve been to the shop a couple of times and it’s great to see what you’ve accomplished. For me what makes it truly special is the hospitaility and friendship you guys extend to anyone who visits. Tall on bikes and comradery and lacking in ego. Just so fuckin’ cool.

  6. Looks like motorcycle heaven. Bright, spacious, and full of bikes. Very cool man. I live in central jersey, about an hour from Philly. Would love to take a ride down in the not to distant future to see it. Let me know if and when that would be cool. Will bring beer.
